Living in Two Kingdoms [Paperback]

David Adam (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 23, 2007

As a youngster,"" writes David Adam, ""I always wanted to know more. I liked to climb the next hill and look around the next corner. My mother said I wanted to see the 'back of beyond'. I was never quite sure what she meant but I was often aware of an otherness in the midst of what was plainly in view."" Both visionary and engagingly down-to-earth, Living in Two Kingdoms helps us recognize that the visible world of matter and the invisible world of spirit are not two worlds but one. We can be sure that whatever harsh reality we may have to face from time to time, the true reality is that we are never on our own. Because here and now whatever it may feel like, we are truly part of the kingdom of God!
